SO-SAID was introduced into the reality show in the 8th episode where Mrs. Concern R.D Martins narrated how rough and tough the journey was when she started. “In the beginning, I was going about the streets with camera crew and those who can help in carrying the insane for me, this made my husband chased me out of the house because he felt I was embarrassing the family even my first son hit me on the face and I slept on the street for eight months when I started the project.”
Mrs. Concern R.D Martins, recalled times she shed tears, “When I see some schools discriminating against my kids, telling the kids not to come to school because they are from So- Said (motherless babies’ home) I shed tears’.
‘sometimes when some kids are picked on the street and they need urgent treatment at the hospital and there is no transportation and money to convey them, I will resolve to do the walking, at those moments too I shed tears’.
Mrs. Gift Abudu, 44 year old medical matron at So-Said described Mrs. Concern Felicia R.D Martins as charitable and God-fearing.
